    C               Em
And now, the end is near
         C7             A7             
And so I face the final curtain
   Dm                  F
My friend, I’ll say it clear
              Dm                 C
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain.


     C                   C7
I’ve lived a life that’s full
              F              Dm
I’ve traveled each and ev’ry highway
    C                    G
And more, much more than this
         F  C
I did it my way.


  C                 Em
Regrets, I’ve had a few
         C7                A7
But then again, too few to mention
  Dm                F
I did what I had to do
           Dm                C
And saw it through without exemption


   C                   C7
I planned each charted course
             F              Dm
Each careful step along the byway
    C                    G
But more, much more than this
         F  C
I did it my way


                C                   C7
Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
           F
When I bit off more than I could chew.
               Dm                   G
But through it all, when there was doubt
         Em             F
I ate it up and spit it out
           Dm              G
I faced it all and I stood tall
           F  C
And did it my way.


     C                       Em
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried
            C7                A7
I’ve had my fill; my share of losing
    Dm               F
And now, as tears subside
          Dm      C
I find it all so amusing
   C                C7
To think I did all that
          F               Dm
And may I say - not in a shy way
   C             G
oh no, oh no not me
         F  C
I did it my way


              C                C7
For what is a man, what has he got
          F
If not himself, then he has naught
           Dm              G
To say the things he truly feels
            Em               F
And not the words of one who kneels
           Dm               G
The record shows I took the blows
           F  C
And did it my way
           Dm               G
The record shows I took the blows
           F  C-barred
And did it my way....
